Abstract

Soil in road pavement construction has an important role as the foundation for the structure supporting the load above it. The damage that occurs in road construction also often due to subgrade soil that does not have good bearing capacity, therefore soil reinforcement or stabilization is needed to improve its strength. The road section in Cibingbin Village, Cibaliung subdistrict, Pandeglang Regency was damaged due to a lack of soil bearing capacity, where through field CBR tests it was discovered that the CBR value of the soil was 3% less than required. Soil strengthening can be done by adding additional substances to the soil which can increase its strength and bearing capacity. Eggshell powder was chosen in this research as an additive to see its effect on soil strength. Soil strength is tested through unconfined compression stress (UCS) testing in the laboratory. Apart from that, the effect of adding eggshell powder on the physical properties of the soil was also studied. Variations in adding eggshell powder were taken in varying percentages 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, 12% and 14%. The results of testing the physical properties of the soil showed that the original soil type was classified as organic clay with high plasticity (CH). The UCS test results on the original soil had a strength (qu) value of 1.6 kg/cm2, and the adding eggshell powder could increase the qu value which got optimum value at the percentage 12% eggshell powder with 0 and 3 days of curing of 2.851 kg/cm2 and 3.386 kg/cm2 respectively. It can be concluded that the addition of eggshell powder can increase the soil strength. The consistency of the clay soil changes to become stronger and based on the UCS value the clay soil becomes stiffer.

Abstract

Land is one of the important elements in construction projects and must have a high bearing capacity to support the structure above it. Civil construction, whether roads, buildings, or other structures, will last a long time if one of the factors is supported by a good subgrade. The location of the road in Sudimanik Village has soil classified as expansive clay, which has a high shrinkage capacity due to changes in water content. One way to improve unstable soil is by adding materials such as Fly Ash and Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS).The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of the soil based on the classification and physical properties of the soil using the Unified Soil Classification System method and to determine the characteristics of the soil and the effect of adding consistent variations of fly ash at 20% and variations in the percentage of GGBFS 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% as additional material for soil stabilization against the Unconfined Compression Test value with variations in curing time of 0, 7, 14 and 28 days.The addition of fly ash and GGBFS/slag cement substantially increased the unconfined compressive strength of the soil over time. The maximum mixture for increasing the unconfined compressive strength was achieved with 20% fly ash and 30% GGBFS in variation E, indicating that this combination is very effective for increasing the soil strength in this area.

The plasticity index value after the study was 12.69%, in variation E, namely the addition of 20% fly ash and 30% GGBFS. The optimum qu value is in variation E with a curing time of 28 days, which is 2.287 kg / cm2. And experienced an increase in qu value of 295.918% from the original soil condition.

Abstract

The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) of soil plays the key roll in unsaturated soil mechanics which is a relatively new field. To encourage the geotechnical engineers to apply unsaturated soil mechanics theories in routine practice, numerical methods, based on the SWCC and saturated soil properties, have been developed to predict unsaturated permeability function and unsaturated shear strength properties which are expensive, time consuming, and it may require specials techniques or apparatus to measure the SWCC in laboratories. However, it is important to have laboratory measured data of SWCCs to enhance and verify the proposed numerical methods. Hence, employing the capillary column method which applies the tempe cell pressure principle, namely varying the matric suction value, this study aims to obtain the water content in each matric sauction variation which is then presented in SWCC form. Saturated permeability is obtained from constant head test. Permeability function is calculated indirectlt by Fredlund and Rahardjo method (1993) using SWCC and saturated permeability.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the landslide potential in Taktakan Sub-district, Serang City, which is prone to landslides due to geographical and hydrometeorological factors. The analysis was conducted using Geographic Information System (GIS) method with QGIS software and Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) approach combined with Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Factors causing landslides, such as slope, rainfall, geology, and land use, were analyzed based on the weights obtained from respondents' questionnaires. The results showed that rainfall has the greatest influence (42%), followed by slope (37%), geology (11%), and land use (10%). The highest landslide potential is found in Taktakan sub-district, with the dominant vulnerability level in the medium class (50.73%), while the high and very high risk areas are 20.65% and 3.66%, respectively. This study concludes that high rainfall and steep slopes are the main factors that increase the risk of landslides in the area
